bottle thanks to bu11zeye. deep amber/red, pink head. light cherries, sugar, very sweet. ok palate, tastes like cough medicine.

(330ml bottle thanks to bu11zeye) A great dark pink color with a good bit of carbonation. Smells like a black cherry soda. Tastes more complex- still lots of fruit- black cherry, raspberry, pineapple. Also some muskiness. Could use some more tartness, or complexity- just a bit too sweet.

(330ml bottle thanks to bu11zeye) clear pink with fine white bubbles. Nose of cherry, mild pipe tobacco, hard to smell much. Taste of saccharin, very bitter, odd artificial flavors and a bad linger. I love cherry beverages, but this is simply awful.

Bottle. Like a lot of fruit beers this one is also way to sweet for having a good beer. This is not a beer for me

33cl bottle: Brilliant raspberry red with lively and creamy barbie pink mousse. Aroma of cherries, strawberries, apricot, peach, and honey. Flavor.... hmmm... sugar substitute (harsh) and man-made cherry flavoring. Oily mouthfeel makes this sugar solution very cloying. Harshly sweet with a bitter chemical edge. Melted cherry cough drops with a touch of arsenic?

Pinkish red color. Cherry sweets and a touch of yeast in the rather artificial aroma. Sugary cherry flavor with some saccharine bitterness, as you can taste in artificial sweetener. Not good.

(330ml bottle) Pours a clear ruby body with a small pink head. Aroma of sugar, artificial cherry, and medicinal. Flavor of artificial cherry flavoring and sugar.

Bottle at ZBF 2010. Clear red coloured with a medium sized pink head. Sweet aroma of hay, berries and winegums. Very sweet flavour of winegums. Sweet finish. Too sweet.

19/11/2011 33cl bottle @ Gentse Biervereniging: Brouwerij De Ryck op bezoek - BB: 8/13 (2011-650)

Clear ruby red beer, big pink head, stable, little adhesive. Aroma: metallic, little sour, very faint spicy, yeast. Doesn’t smell as sweet as you would expect. MF: ok carbon, light body. Taste: very sweet, cloying. Not even cherries, just sugary, candy. Aftertaste: little bit of sour and more sweet sugar fest.

This is syrup no beer ? Red pink colour with a light rose head. Taste sugar cherry with saggarine ? Too sweet.
